Hi,
This is my first time posting on mumsnet...
We have 2 young children (1&3) and from time to time, if my partner and I row, he gets really angry, to the point he screams and breaks/ smashes something.
He’s a lovely man, but he’s really stressed out with not earning enough money, and the stresses of having 2 young kids, and is drinking quite a lot everyday.
Today he came right up to my face, and whilst I don’t think he’ll hit me, he got right in my personal space. Before that he had smashed a plate in the kitchen. My little boy hugged his sister and shut the sitting room door, so ‘daddy couldn’t come in’...
He never throws anything at us, but he calls me horrible names, and the banging and crashing in another room has all of us on edge. He’s broken several kitchen items, punched holes in two doors...
I’m so worried it’s going to affect the children, but don’t quite know what to do about it. I’ve asked him to leave, even for a short time but he won’t, says he’s got nowhere to go... he’s a very caring man, but he’s so moody in the mornings...
